SEMINAR ON ADVANCED TOPIC (19ME801)

TOPIC: SELF INFLATING TYERS

ABSTRACT

Studies have shown that due to drop in Tyre pressure by just a few PSI
can result in reduction of tire life, gas mileage, and performance of vehicle.
Also it can be the for road accidents. Though tubeless Tyres has been invented
but it could not with stand as a perfect solution in all the conditions. So, we
have developed automatic and self-inflated Tyre system for stabilization of
air in Tyres that ensures that Tyres are properly inflated all the times. This
concept is based on the use of nozzle which helps to increase air thrust to
overcome internal pressure of Tyre to regulate and maintain the Tyre pressure
in running condition. The most important factors that should be taken in
account for maintenance of Tyre like proper inflation pressure, proper vehicle
loading, regular inspection, good driving habits, vehicle condition, etc. This
concept arises with innovative idea for improvement in our Automobile
industry.

With the increasing prices of oil and growing concern of environmental

issues, this system addresses a potential improvement in gas mileage. Thus in
this concept, we reviewed the all available self-inflating Tyre systems that are
used now a days. There are lots of self inflating-tire systems on the market,
but most of them are only available for commercial and military application
